Title: 1911 Lewis L ... who?
Post by: queencorgi1 on Tuesday 26 August 25 17:19 BST (UK)
I have tried and failed to track down the second person listed in this entry from the 1911 census. I don't think it's Lewis Lary (doesn't seem to exist), could be Lewis Levi or Levy, of whom there were many born in Aldgate and nearby. Can anyone help? I'll say in advance, I'm not optimistic!

PS described himself as a part time student

Have you tried finding him on the 1901?  What is his connection to you?

Thank you both for replying.
I'm interested in Frank Bevan, with whom Lewis was living in 1911. Bevan is one of a number of First World War officers I am researching.
I must say, Lewis Levy looks a strong possibility, thank you!

only connection to a lewis levy I can see that may be is perhaps through the Harris line there are levy and harris marriages so you may be able to connect theDo you think perhaps lewis may just have been a student of Frank Bevans 1911 is only census they are together  a difficult mystery ;D
